just because a dev studio found a way to do someting new with the cell doesn't mean its suddenly easy to work with. any one who says its easy is lying to themselves. yes it possible but when compared to PC and 360 its difficult. it requires lots of time and money to get a decent port. and valve isn't talentless they're 40 people that don't have time to spend on a Ps3 port that and they don't like the cell. nor sony.mayceVWriting good multithreaded code is hard, period - the PS3 is just somewhat more dependent on it than the 360, itself somewhat more dependent than the PC. Eventually, everyone's going to have to bite the bullet and do it, though - the days of a single super-fast core aren't coming back any time soon.
